I use graphene OS on mine. Sounds weird to go degoogle with a Google phone but works surprisingly well. Mostly supports pixel phones since with those you can relocked your boot loader.
if you DO want playstore apps an functionality(since no play services) you can either make a second user or use something like shelter that uses the work profile as a kinda sandbox and get play services with that. I mostly need those for banking app but most stuff I switched to open source alternatives which thankfully isn't as bad with android.
I dunno which one he's selling. The main advantage of the privacy phones, IMO, are the manual cut-off switches. They can't record you if the microphone(s) is/are disconnected. Same with camera. And it's fairly easy to verify that functionality. GPS can be cut off via the antenna. Having a data plan probably reduces your privacy, but you can buy one. ICR if they have a switch for the modem, but if you wanted to be Wifi only you just don't install SIM.
Another reason to do this is if you ever want to do something, and you always carry your phone with you, they'll notice if you don't. I've seen that used as evidence. If you keep all that shit turned off except when you're using it, there's no gap evidence like that. For everyone, I would at least go ahead and turn off location services being on all the time. Unless you just really never plan on havin ganything to hide from anyone including ex-wife etc.
The spying is way beyond what most people can fathom at this point. You’d be wise to assume any digital communication you make is being intercepted and saved in a system that has a digital footprint profile for every individual American, one that categorizes all of us and can predict our behavior based on that digital footprint. Look into the “Sentient World Simulation”, that shit will blow your mind. This spying problem is not even something you can avoid by not owning smart tech. A few years ago I was on a military base doing some contractor work, and there were predator drones taking off every 10 minutes while I was there. I was right next to a predator drone in a hanger while talking to the base commander about how good the optics are, when he said that even at 20,000ft up, if you were to hold your hand out with change in it, that drone operator could zoom in with such clarity he could count that change like he was right there. Our gov was using drones in Mexico back around 2012 trying to help the Mexican government combat drug cartel activities. Those drones were recording vid nonstop in a massive grid that could see entire regions of Mexico, so when a drug cartel bombed an enemy, our military could use the video from whatever drone filmed that particular area to go back in time through the footage to the moment a suspect planted that bomb, then reverse the footage following the suspect back to his house or the cartel hideout in order to help the Mexican government arrest these guys. Our NSA is using that same drone tech above the entirety of the U.S. right now, there’s no hiding from their spy programs in the sky, on the light poles, on our smart products, on the ring doorbells, or wherever the fuck else…it’s everywhere.
There’s proof of numerous telecommunications corporations, and tech manufacturer's working directly with the NSA for years to ensure the NSA has backdoor access and spyware in all of the major networks and tech produced by the corporations they work with. I’m sure there is a monetary incentive involved to sway companies like Dell and Verizon to comply, but also, I’d be willing to bet our government would’ve forced those corporations to work with the NSA regardless of how they felt about it, saying it’s a national security threat for government not to have the access they demand. I can’t prove any of them were forced to comply, because that info would likely remain top secret forever, but if one of them was forced to comply, you can bet your ass they all are….and if that’s the case, there’s no chance in hell a privacy based phone manufacturer would ever be allowed to exist without being paid a visit from the NSA, who would then force the manufacturer to install whatever spyware the NSA wants in that product.
Jesus, at this point I'm thinking of getting that thousand dollar smartphone that James O'Keefe is shilling.
Are there any other fucking phone OS's that aren't Alphabet Spyware, Apple garbage, and Chinese Spyware?

Same. Graphene is quite simple and straightforward. Can still use google apps if you want but they are sandboxed
Maybe try a Linux phone?
Or get a burner flip phone like me

Of all the criticisms you could have made over the phone, you chose the stupidest one.
Jews aren't in the phone. It's fine. Calm down.
Yes, the JIDF is totally a thing of the past and they would never harvest your data to monitor you, actually the hamas would.
Literally something else can exist besides Mossad.
WhatsApp voice calls used to inject Israeli spyware on phones
I would like to know what those words are.
